Program

Liszt Fest | Jokers (FR/IT/IL)

20:00
Opus Jazz Club
Featuring:
  • Vincent Peirani – accordion
  • Federico Casagrande – guitar
  • Yoann Serra – drums

From duo to quintet, Vincent Peirani has played in the most diverse forms of musical collaboration. The trio format he brings to Budapest is nonetheless new territory for him. In this band, which he formed with Italian guitarist Federico Casagrande and Yoann Serra, one of the most active drummers in the French jazz scene, any of the musicians can take over the role of another member. It is a game in which only jokers have been dealt, and they complement, rather than overwrite, each other. Everything goes, every part is the main role, while they all head in the same direction at any given point.

Peirani referred to murmuration, the synchronized movement of a flock of birds, to describe how it feels to play in the trio: there is a sense of a central will that governs the movement of all participants. None of them is a leader, but all of them are perfectly in sync, creating a coordinated whole together.

Tickets are available for 2500 HUF on the Liszt Fest website.

This concert of the Liszt Fest is presented by Müpa Budapest as a joint program with Budapest Music Center.
